Said system database server 2506 and website applications 2509 areconfigured to provide online users with search and selection functionson locations over digital map on interfaces of said website on acomputer or mobile device 2504 at any places; said system retrieves datarelated to said selected location from database of said system,location, interior structure and sub-locations related information ormultimedia programs are shown on said web interfaces 2509 of thecomputer or mobile device 2504.

Said mobile application server communicates with and monitors saidmobile application installed on the mobile device 2504. In anotheraspect, said mobile application server tracks said mobile device 2504'sgeo location based on GPS signals, OWCA signals, wireless signals fromdata points, user entered information, or the like. It is noted that anymethod of location tracking may be utilized.

Said mobile application server may search said database and checks if alocation is associated with an entry in the database based on theidentified geolocation. In another aspect, said mobile device 2504 maycommunicate directly with an OWCA for location information and toestablish a connection. Once a location is found within user selectedoptions, the mobile device 2504 may show information or multimediaprograms based on data received from an OWCA 2502, or informationreceived through the web server 2506. In an aspect, the mobileapplication may allow a user to select an option to automaticallygenerate an alert when such information is available and/or received. Inanother aspect, the mobile device 2504 may directly communicate with theOWCA 2502 when the mobile device is within a geographic area of the OWCA2502. It may be required to establish secured connections without goingthrough mobile networks and, in addition, may reduce data consumption ofa user with mobile device 2504 since there is no need to communicate viaa wireless service provider.

Said mobile application on said mobile device 2504 may be configured toallow users to select interested categories and sub-categories oflocations before start his or her route. The categories may be stored ina memory of the mobile device 2504. In another aspect, the mobile device2504 may automatically select categories based on user selectedcriteria, use history, past user likes, information received from thirdparty services (e.g., social media, etc.), or the like. In an example, auser may not select any options from said mobile application menu, andthe mobile device 2504 may display information or multimedia programs ofall places found from said database of said remote system or said onsitewireless communication apparatus.

In another embodiment, information and multimedia programs of largebusinesses and entities with multiple services, functions ormerchandises may be identified in different categories such as mall orsupermarket, government bodies are shown at all times regardless ofwhether menu options selected by said mobile users. This may allowlarger entities to show a number of different options to a user.

Location owners have options to get on said website 2505 at any places,or their onsite wireless communication apparatus 2502, to create securedaccounts, register their geographical locations or postal addresses,nature and functions of the locations along with other information;select functions and features available within their accounts andpublish their information, connect video or audio equipment to said OWCA2502 for live broadcasting or upload recorded audio and videorecordings; select sequences of presenting said information, data and orrecorded or live programs. In an aspect, the location owners may haveaccounts registered with a service provider.

Once they are registered with geographical locations or postal addressesand select to publish their information or data, their geo-position willbe marked with an image showing the nature or functions of the placealong with name of their business, facilities, entities, governmentbodies or organizations on a digital map of said website; b. associatedwith mobile device users having said mobile application and physicallywithin a range of the geo-position. The location owner may select and/oredit the image, information, or other associated information. It isfurther noted that the location owner may view the mobile device's 2504within range of their OWCA 2502. It is further noted that the locationowner may blacklist or whitelist certain mobile devices 2504. Forinstance, if a mobile device 2504 is associated with suspicious orundesirable activity, the location owner may select to disable theconnection of the OWCA 2502 and the mobile device 2504.

Said system's remote server and database 2506 may be communicating viasecured connections with remote server and database of third parties2508. A user may access a location on a digital map 2509 from an onlineconnection and/from a mobile device 2504. When the location is selectedor a user with mobile device installed with mobile application of saidsystem is onsite of a location, the database 2506 may query entries tosearch for and identify entries associated with the location. Forinstance, the database 2506 may identify a store with a registeredaccount in the vicinity of the mobile device 2504. In another aspect,the database 2506 may query the third-party database 2508 via a securedconnection 2510. The database 2506 may receive information via thesecure access 2510 from the third party 2508. This may allow the system2500 to have a closed or otherwise secured connection. As such, OWCA's2502 may maintain a secure connection for mobile device 2504. This mayallow the location owners to send most updated and specific informationof the said location to said mobile users and also to connect with userswithout the users worrying about unwanted attacks from hackers or thelike.

In another aspect, the OWCA's and/or remote server 2506 may transmitinformation (e.g., multimedia programing, advertisements, etc.) via aweb interface 2509 for online users 2507. For users accessing a OWCA2502, the mobile device 2504 may generate a notification that theinformation is available. In some embodiments, the mobile device 2504may automatically display the information with notifying the user. Usersof the system may also communicate with one another or user groups viasocial media features and functions provided by the system 2525.

OWCA's 2502 may be configured to connect to said remote server 2506 ofsaid system 2500 via internet connection, as described herein. Inanother aspect, OWCA's 2502 may operatively communicate with otherOWCA's 2502. For instance, a large location (e.g., mall, officebuilding, stadium, village, construction site, military base, etc.) mayutilize multiple OWCA's 2502 to cover a large geographic area. In thisinstance, OWCA's 2502 may communicate with each other or with a centralOWCA 2502 that may, in turn, communicate with the remote server 2506. Itis noted however, that each OWCA 2502 may communicate with the remoteserver 2506 and/or may selectively disable or prevent communication withthe remote server 2506.

A user of a mobile device 2504 installed with said mobile applicationmay be within a location where there is no OWCA 2502 or an OWCA 2502 hasmalfunctioned. As such, the mobile device 2504 may communicate directlywith the remote server 2506. Once a OWCA 2502 is identified or otherwiseproperly functioning, the mobile device 2504 may terminate connectionwith the remote server 2506 and may communicate directly with the OWCA2502. It is noted, however, that the mobile device 2504 may continue tocommunicate with the remote server 2506 as well as the OWCA 2502. Forinstance, the OWCA 2502 may provide location specific information,high-bandwidth information, or the like, while the remote sever 2506 mayprovide general information (e.g., a map of a larger region), lowbandwidth information, etc.

In at least one embodiment, the system 2500 may require the OWCA 2502 toregister with the remote server 2506 to enable access or communicationwith the mobile device 2504. According to one embodiment, the mobiledevice 2504 may request an identification code from the OWCA 2502. Themobile device 2504 may forward the identification code to the remoteserver 2506 for verification. The remote server 2506 determines whetheror not to verify the OWCA 2502 and may forward the information to themobile device 2504.

In at least one embodiment, an OWCA 2502 may be associate with a ratingor classification. For instance, an OWCA 2502 may be associate withadult content, a particular type of food, a secured environment, or thelike. When the remote database 2506 receives the verification code, itmay cross-reference user settings and the OWCA 2502 classification. If,for example, the mobile device 2504 has enabled parental controls, theremote database 2506 may prevent the OWCA 2502 classified for adultcontent from communicating with the mobile device 2504. In anotherexample, the OWCA 2502 may associate with food containing allergies(e.g., nuts). The remote database 2506 may cross reference user settingsidentifying the allergies and may notify the user via the mobile device2504 when the user is identified as allergic to the particular allergen.These, of course, are merely examples of possible communications. Assuch, this disclosure is not limited to such.

It is noted that the remote database 2506 may be off or otherwise notavailable in a particular area or to a particular mobile device 2504. Insuch embodiments, OWCA 2502 may communicate with the mobile device 2504directly for verification. A user may manual verify an OWCA 2502, suchas through an on-screen prompt. In another aspect, the mobileapplication may check said OWCA 2502 authorization number againstauthorization codes previously received from the remote database of thesystem 2506 through a remote access point before the remote database2506 was off or otherwise unavailable and stored with said mobileapplication which are assigned to those OWCA's 2502 in the areas orregions which have no internet or cellphone signals, once verified saidmobile application may receive information and multimedia programsbroadcasted from said OWCA's 2502. It is noted that the mobileapplication may store a list of pre-registered or previously visitedOWCA's 2502. Moreover, a user may selectively remove an OWCA 2502 from apre-registered list.
